The first part of the purchasing power bill was adopted Wednesday afternoon in the National Assembly, after a last stand by the deputies of La France insoumise.

This first part concerns in particular the increase of several allowances with retroactive effect from July 1, 2022.

Before the Senate, the National Assembly on Wednesday gave a last green light to the first part of measures in favor of purchasing power, despite a motion to reject LFI against a text of "regression" according to these deputies.

4% increase in retirement pensions and several allowances with retroactive effect from July 1, 2022, capping the increase in rents at 3.5% in France and again tripling the ceiling of the Macron bonus that can be paid by employers: this "emergency" bill was validated by 395 votes against 112 and 36 abstentions.
